Vaccine Information

Just the facts, Jack. The following pages are full to overflowing with facts about vaccine information for parents. You’ll find lots and lots of immunization information on multiple vaccines and the diseases they prevent. You’ll also find our “Bringing It Home” section at the end of each vaccine-preventable disease page. These are Ashland local and relevant bits of information or stories that you may find useful in your decision-making process.

This website isn’t big on scare tactics. You won’t find horror stories or distressing pictures of suffering children. Just lots of facts and numbers and even some graphs.

Parents have the choice to not vaccinate their children. However, we encourage you to carefully consider the risk to your child and the community and seek out evidence-based information when making that choice.
